Rewrite: Forever My steps weary, a little slow, Much slower now then years ago. And the stay of memories weigh, Heavier now then yesterday. Each step strains a little more, More so now then years before. As sands depletion takes its toll Horizonless beyond my goal. There is no crest this weary road, Each night of rest just adds more load. We look surcease and beg release, But peace does not include our lease. We all must journey into time, By different road, route and climb. But if a love opens a door, Then hold it tight and say no more. Our faith is blind a chart less chart Invisible its end and start. A ghost of being, a host of goal, Perhaps a process of the soul? But if by chance I am in error, Then love your love as if forever.

Sy--There is much wisdom in your years.. Our faith is blind a chart less chart Invisible its end and start. A ghost of being, a host of goal, Perhaps a process of the soul? I particularly liked the above stanza...and thanks for the unique person that you are...and for writing it down in your unique way. It's great! |

I sincerely hope this is only a work of art and not a work of belief. Either way, well done. Time has its reward, we just have to wait ... Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

BUT those last verses are so cool and so spiritually kissed with wisdom.... that I cant say nothing but ... OHHOWILOVEWHENYOUWRITELIKETHIS *WW* me Looking hard into your eyes, There was nobody I'd ever known. Such an empty surprise ... To feel so alone. ~jackson browne~ [This message has been edited by Janet Marie (edited 04-08-2001).] |

and I would give you dreams to dream that your spirit in endless float, serene before the weight of daily goal anchored you a cumbersome soul... Hugs.... |

We all must journey into time, By different road, route and climb. But if a love opens a door, Then hold it tight and say no more. I especially like this verse, Seymour... now if only I could find that door! *S* Great work! |
